The former Van Halen star, who is also a restaurateur and a tequila connoisseur, admits he has already tasted failure with an initial reality idea - but he's not ready to give up.

He says, "The response I got was that there’s no drama. How about that? We’re too happy. It’s disappointing in terms of doing the show, but it was also the biggest compliment I've ever had."

Hagar is also hoping to join the list of celebrity cookbook authors with the publication of Are We Having Any Fun Yet?: The Cooking & Partying Handbook.

He tells UltimateClassicRock.com, "It’s pretty much the manual for throwing a party and the culinary lifestyle I’ve had on the road my whole life. My grandfather was a chef, and my mom was a great cook. And I have all these chef friends, so it’s all about that. All my drink recipes from my different spirits; what to pair while eating and drinking. It’s really fun."
